I made another run today. This time on a football field (with slippery grass...again). Most run are WOT or should I say I did the run 85% of the time WOT... Motor was so hot, it was so hot that if you touch it with moist in your hand it immediately turns into steam...you can see it boil... but since this is a test run..i just had a 5-10min rest and WOT again......

Total runtime 25-30(less the rest time). Motor temp is 190-210deg, ESC is 150-170deg and battery got to 100-110deg..It might be related to esc settings as I change the timing from lowest - low..Speed were really good...I might get a 1660 or 1845kv with a 62/24 or 25 gearing seed to see if it still hot....or i'll let the expert luciano do the rest of the testing

ohh and this time i ripped off the front tire from the rim..

This motor should do well with Luciano's 6S ESC...

Good enough for bashing but not for racing....

I'm still waiting for the correct motors to come in and I will definitely put some strain on them .

Guess what I got in the mail today? MF shafts. What the hell do they want me to do with shafts? This is just turning out to be really bad. I had a great time racing today and then this. It sucks.
